Zi-Mo Liao（廖紫默）

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Modern Mechanics at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), under the supervision of Prof. Xi-Yun Lu and Prof. Nan-Sheng Liu. My research interests span fluid dynamics—particularly turbulence—and its applications in geophysics, astrophysics, and related interdisciplinary fields.

My recent research projects focus on particle-laden turbulence in wall-bounded geometries - a challenging regime where turbulent dynamics intertwine with multiphase interactions across a vast parameter space. I aim to elucidate the mechanisms underlying particle-induced turbulence modulation via an integration of the statistical theory of turbulence (continuous phase) and kinetic theory (dispersed particulate phase), seeking a harmonious physical picture of this complex system.
